 Cheesy

this is very easy!!



-Just pop off the bottom part of the wiper arm
- Unscrew the nut
- pull wiper off
- get an antenna ball and drill a hole in the back of it ( i got a disneyland ball)
-next, just push the ball into the stick thing poppin' out
and your done


So now when you turn the wiper arm on, the antenna ball will go side to side.

haha  lol

Have you ever found a use for the rear wiper?  I have yet to.  The spoiler kept most the snow off in the winter, and rain rolls right off it as long as you're driving forward.  I guess if you tried driving in reverse through a hurricane...

i might take the wiper motor off to put in a rear view camera.

but that'll be way later. i got no rush.

I wonder if you could attach the antenna or accouterment to the rear wiper - then you could use the wiper just to entertain people behind you.

wow I use my wiper all the time.  we have some heavy downpours, and I cant see crap through my back glass unless I turn it on.  I guess it all depends on where your regionally located. I couldn't go without my rear wiper thats for sure.

I've only used it twice & it was because the back window was really dirty when it started to rain & I could no longer see out of it Wink

How about a finger that would wag back and forth if you are tailgated?

No not that finger. I was thinking index finger that would go side to side like NO NO No!!!
Or a thumb pointing up for a cool car "thumbs up!"
Or the surfs up thumb, pinky movement (Forgot what that on was literally).

Hey this could be great (Or Greater)
No middle one though. even if deserved! Tongue

Hmm.. I use mine occasionally. The window gets pretty dirty.

I'll second eviljack's reply, as I was sitting right next to him at the time Smiley

We were also discussing possible other options. 2 that were popular were a football kicker and an axe falling on a bloodied head Smiley


Didn't know I was back there with a camera, didja animalboy Smiley
I blurred out yer license. What a pain that was.
